Synopsis: Last week I completely forgot (<-how could I) about Kenichi. I don’t know what happened. I forgot to read it and the chapter was pretty funny too 😦 Gomen! This week, Kenichi continues his hellish training and he is really improving. However, his masters, particularly Akisame-sama, always has something more strenuous and challenging prepared for him. The chapter continues with a sort of re-introduction of everyone who lives in Ryouzanpaku. I’m assuming your favourite part is the bit when Ma Kensei uses his super epic powers to harass Shigure-san *smh (If she finds Ma Kensei so annoying, why doesn’t she dress properly? o.O Ecchi my foot, she secretly likes it 😐 lol) Elder continues to tease Kenichi by saying that a person most suited to being with Miu is a person who is capable of defeating him. If I were Kenichi I would find that depressing instead of motivating….especially since Elder (The Invincible Superman) is the strongest man of the entire friggin’ world. Kenichi has a veeeery loong way to go (poor kid). Well, I guess if Elder dies earlier than expected then he would have a chance with Miu. We all know that probably won’t happen xD.

The chapter moves on and Kenichi goes to school. He speaks to Tanimoto (the fickle menstruator) of all people about Miu. However, Tanimoto, who can be mature sometimes, tells him to ask Miu herself. Kenichi follows Tanimoto’s advice and Miu replies in relief: “…I am happy that you asked. I was thinking that you were not interested in me,” (Lol! Nice one Miu…) Miu then begins to tell Kenichi of her struggles with finding information about her father and so forth and Kenichi (who takes her hands in his) suggests that they investigate together fufufufu. So far, they only have one mysterious clue to help with this investigation….

Best Character (s): Miu and Kenichi for being more open about their feelings and Tanimoto for being his usual fickle self. Apachai and Shigure also provided some humour by ensuring that Miu and Kenichi were not left alone.

Worst Character: Everyone was okay.

Likes: As mu§e said, things are getting more interesting since we might finally be getting some long awaited information on Miu’s mysterious padre. I also love all the talks about love and stuff 😀 It’s not too pathetic or annoying. I just love Kenichi in general. Most of the other mainstream manga are always dominated by guys. At least this has some more diversity ^_^

Dislikes: Nothing stood out in a bad way. Everything seemed fine.

More Chapter Ratings:

mu§e: 7/10 – More interesting plot development. Glad to see Ryozanpaku back to normal and being how it should be. Lol at Apachai. He’s just too adorable. Same goes for Tanimoto-kun and Kenichi. More importantly, we’re FINALLY getting into the drama behind Miu’s father!

Random Hot Topic: Let’s talk about Elder’s meddling in the juicy lovey dovey stuff between Kenichi and Miu. Although it’s very funny and grandfather-like when he meddles, I doubt Kenichi will end up impregnating Miu -_- (So he needs to give them a break) As ecchi as this manga is, that definitely won’t happen (I think…) Maybe it’s not time for them to get all intimate and serious about each other? I would have liked to see a simple kiss on the cheek though. What say you mu§e? Would you have liked to see a simple kiss on the cheek or do you agree with it being postponed by Elder?

mu§e: “I thought they did kiss on the cheek? And screw kisses on cheeks. I want my full blown kiss…I’ll let them skimp on the tongue though 😛 hahaha. But on a serious note. I don’t think they’d get THAT serious. Kenichi is an honourable boy, and Miu is annoyingly innocent -_-. They’d hold out until marriage for suure.”
